Abstract
The present paper outlines the results of full-scale tests of climatic stability of rubbers based on BNKS-18 (butadiene-nitrile rubber) and Hydrin T6000 epichlorohydrin rubber containing low-volatile and non-toxic phenolic antioxidants. Samples are exposed in an open ground under natural conditions of exposure to climatic external factors of Yakutsk in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), as well as in deformed state (by 30%). Such indexes of the samples as conditional tensile strength, elongation at break are measured to determine the resistance of rubbers to aging after the first, third, sixth, ninth, twelfth and eighteenth months of exposing. The results of the study reveal the contribution of CO3 stabilizer in maintaining the stability of the physical and mechanical properties of BNKS-18: rubber containing CO3 has less property changes in the open air. Stafen stabilizer occurred more effective for the rubber based on Hydrin T6000: Over the entire period of full-scale exposure, rubber samples containing it demonstrated the smallest changes in the indicators of elastic-strength properties as compared to the industrial stabilizer 6РРD and other experimental stabilizers.
